Now that you’ve converted your home and entertainment center into a smart one, you now realize that you just have too many smart home devices and brands that work on different networks. On top of that, you’re now scrolling through multiple mobile apps to set a mood or combine different actions. 

Don’t worry, there is a solution. The Logitech Harmony Hub — which is now on sale for $56.95, a $43 savings — works with Amazon Alexa to sync your smart home devices for one seamless action.

Retailing for $99.99, the Logitech Harmony Hub can combine up to eight home entertainment devices, remotes, and hundreds of apps into one Android or iPhone smartphone app with a simple swipe. Think of the hub as a universal remote for your smart home devices. 

For example, imagine you are trying to create the perfect atmosphere for date night. You can combine multiple apps and smart home devices into one action and the Harmony Hub will simultaneously turn on your Samsung 4K smart TV, launch Netflix, dim your smart lights from Philips Hue, and turn on your Sonos One smart speaker to get ready for a real “Netflix and Chill” ambience going.

The best part about the Logitech Harmony Hub is it’s completely customizable and works with hundreds of smart home products, streaming services, and mobile apps. You can also control it all with your smartphone or just your voice with the Amazon Alexa assistant.

“I’ve been using my Harmony hub for several years now and absolutely love it. The initial setup can be tricky for those who aren’t quite as tech savvy, but once it’s setup it makes life nice and easy. With the push of a button it turns on my TV, Stereo, cable box and Xbox. I went from using multiple remotes to just one (I purchased the bundle that came with the remote). The Harmony Hub can also work with Alexa and Google’s smart devices. I have a 3rd generation Echo Dot that I use with the Harmony hub. When I walk into my home after work, I ask Alexa to turn on my TV and everything is on and ready to use.”
